The crust is earths skin and consists of solid rock

Restless, relentless and a blue that numbs

That is a distance im not willing to see

I pause with no limit to the scenery

It shrinks and shrivels

Piled up like cake, snow tree and mountain man

The humanesque disintegrates right before my bulging eye

The whistle from the top seems a treat

But not knowing seems more

The hike I never went on

Exhibition Opening: Thurs June 9th 6pm - 9pm

Exhibition Continues: 10th - 14th June 12pm - 5pm
